The Industrial Internet of Things is shaking up the world of manufacturing and all of its supply chains. Thanks to IoT devices and the steady rollout of 5G connectivity, companies have an unprecedented look into the health of the shop floor, can monitor for shipping-disruptive weather conditions, and can plan maintenance to ensure the least amount of downtime. These sensors are an absolute revolution, but there’s a dark side to the sensors as well. Manufacturers must consider new cybersecurity concerns as each new IoT device represents a potential weak point in the company’s network. Each device presents a tempting target for hackers who are looking to break into the network, but focusing on the individual devices is the wrong answer to the problem. The solution should be a secure network using a zero-trust model.

UPS, FedEx and other carriers spend large sums of money advertising that all of your parcel shipping needs can be satisfied by one vendor. In return for your business, the carrier will provide (at a very low price, or even free) the hardware and software your company needs to automatically create shipments, assign tracking numbers, print labels, and produce the required end-of-day reports. All you need to do is pick, pack, wrap, and have it on your dock. And, by placing all of you parcel requests with one carrier, it is reasonable to assume that you will be getting the best rate, given your level of volume. How can things get better than that?

Ships require a constant energy supply for propulsion and other onboard systems. Fuel requirements and consumption are essential parameters to factor in at the design phase. Adopting alternative fuels will raise important considerations as to the operating profile and architecture of the ship and the need to train crews in their safe storage and use, for instance.

It is imperative that nations keep global heating below 1.5˚C – in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. Even at 1˚C of warming, climate impacts on humanity and nature are already extensive and growing. The risk of passing multiple climate tipping points increases rapidly between 1.5˚ and 2˚C. To meet the Paris goals, major and unprecedented levels of carbon dioxide emissions reductions are needed this decade, on a pathway to zero emissions around 2050. The timescales are extremely urgent. Delay is not an option.
